    ONA has announced an historic constitutional challenge to strike down a 1965 law that strips nurses of fundamental rights to meaningful collective bargaining, including the right to strike. Read the media release: ona.org/news/20260511-… #onlab #onpoli #onhealth

    Today @fordnation responded to a meeting request from ONA President Cathryn Hoy to say that he is too busy to fit us in. We’d love to know what Premier Ford considers more pressing than the worst nurse staffing crisis this province has ever seen. We've been sounding the alarm...

    ONA along with 4 other healthcare unions are calling on @fordnation to halt his plan for private, for-profit surgical clinics: a risky venture that will cost Ontarians dearly and damage access to public care. Read more: ona.org/news-posts/202… #ONpoli

    Breaking: ONA has received Justice Koehnen’s decision declaring Bill 124 unconstitutional & contrary to s 2(d) of the Charter. As a result of this decision, Bill 124 is void & of no effect. Nurses are demanding the government respect the court’s decision. #RepealBill124 #ONpoli

    The @Fordnation government’s actions with #OntEd education workers this week are further proof of an anti-union agenda that has continued since Bill 124. If #ONLab doesn’t stand together now, we all risk being the victims of similar tactics. 🧵1/4

    You can make this Nursing Week a little better by resigning and accepting responsibility.

    Dear @fordnation: Why are you still blaming the previous government for the current #HealthCareCrisis? You're in year 5. You ARE the previous government. Do something. #onpoli @OntarioHealthC

    Every day, the consequences of @fordnation political arrogance become clearer. When pressed, he shrugs his shoulders and says, "We're doing the best we can." That just won't cut it. Doug Ford, this #healthcarecrisis is on you. nursesfightingforchange.ca #ONpoli
